After almost 10 years of being subscribed to various incarnations of this
listserve, I think I may have finally come to an insurmountable technical
difficulty which is now going to render me mute -- I can hear the cheering
already.
Over the past six months, I've tried two regular email addresses and been
constantly unsubscribed... for the past month or so, I've been getting my
mail sent to my gmail addy. The problem: their front end is terrible and
the editor is abysmal. I find myself not responding to a lot of stuff that
I would like to simply because I don't feel comfortable with the
constraints that gmail puts on my responses (no spell check, can't readily
compose in fits and starts, coming back to what I've started, their folder
capabilities are basically non-existent etc.) so, I'm trying out this pop
mail server that I had a bit of success with over the summer. If it doesn't
work, I will simply continue to read -- I get my gmail forwarded to me --
but not respond to your posts.
I feel I must apologize for my dozen or so most recent posts which were put
together in much haste and without benefit of adequate proof-reading. I
hate to foist unpolished material on others. If I can't do it right, I
won't do it.
So, keep it up. To the friends I've made over the years, thanks. To the
enemies, thanks even more.
Tis pity when arbitrary decisions made by 'experts' make computers
automatically discriminate.
possibly or possibly not sticking around,
p
